    Yes. The cat had to pull me more than a mile on the road to get to the rig. He then had to pull me around to the back of the rig to get to the tanks. Then he pulled me backwards through waist deep ruts back to the road. I got out ok on my own. There was a pickup stuck on the road on my way out.

    My friends got some pictures of when he was doing vac truck work of the mud being way over the tires and him getting dragged around by a cat. Dirty work that's for sure.

    That wheeler hand in number 12 there he's in a pretty good bind I've had trailers look like that it's not fun. But my favorite is number 14 love the "we just flopped a mud pit and a six hundred thousand dollar truck so let's pose in front of it" makes me laugh even though it's sad as hell.

    how much of that sort of thing is preventable, and how much is it that '#### just happens?'

    Since most of the ground is just soft muskeg / sand, I'd guess as soon as you touch the edge of the road it would just give way and pull you right in.

    Looks barely wide enough for two cars, let alone 2 semi's passing each other.

    Great pix btw - thanks for that :D
